[vsnet-grb-info 42425] NOT r-band observations of the transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw
TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 44303 SUBJECT: NOT r-band observations of the transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw DATE: 26/04/15 23:26:03 GMT FROM: Laura Cotter at University College Dublin <laura.cotter@ucdconnect.ie> G. Corcoran (UCD), A. de Ugarte Postigo (LAM), L. Cotter (UCD), A. Martin-Carrillo (UCD), B. P. Gompertz (Birmingham), D. Xu (NAOC), D. B. Malesani (DAWN/NBI and Radboud), N. Pyykkinen (NOT and UTU), report on behalf of a larger collaboration: We observed the field of the transient GOTO26djh/AT2026jpw (O'Neill et al., GCN 44301) using the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) equipped with the ALFOSC instrument. Observations consisted of 3x500 s in the SDSS-r band starting at 21:01:12 UT on the 15th of April 2026 (45.73 hr after the GOTO discovery). In our stacked image, the transient is well detected. The calculated AB magnitude was found to be r = 21.85 +/- 0.05 (AB), calculated against the Pan-STARRS catalog, and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.
